GAD 325, Crochet Pupils and more!

Granny A Day 325 marks the beginning of Row 19, my last and final row on my GAD 2012 blanket

I took 2 crochet lessons today.

Both ladies came to me via "twitter"

How great is that?

Here is J practicing Double Crochet with chunky wool and a 6.5mm hook

Which she found easier to use in these early stages, as she has never crocheted before.

The double knit wool and a 4mm hook proved a bit "fine" for her to start off with, so Chunky was the way to go and she did amazingly well.

She has promised to practice lots,  before next weeks lesson.

Next is M, who has picked up crochet very quickly.

In lesson 1, a few weeks ago, she learnt the basics, picking them up very quickly

So today we corrected a few errors when she worked in a row, as she was omitting to work into the turning chain but that was soon corrected.

So we progressed on to Granny Squares

And changing colours in a Granny Square

And she quickly picked this up too!!

And finally, I even managed to crochet a couple of small Christmas stockings today too!
